UNSPSC 85573760: Removal of radioactive element from right lung, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of radioactive element from right lung, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0BPK41Z

UNSPSC 85573760 Removal of radioactive element from right lung, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical-procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted across state and local issuing bodies—including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—reflect solicitations for disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out administration, occupational health surveillance, emergency medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve the specific radiological or pulmonary surgical procedure named in the code. The code's narrow clinical scope and the absence of matching recent procurement activity suggest either that state and local governments rarely contract directly for this specialized procedure or that issuing bodies use different classification systems when they do.

State and local buyers typically procure radioactive-element removal procedures indirectly, through health plan administration, employee health programs, or inpatient hospital services rather than as standalone line items. The recent opportunities indicate that jurisdictions structure medical procurements around benefit management, staffing, surveillance, and care coordination rather than specific surgical procedures. Until UNSPSC-coded opportunities matching this code's scope appear in state and local notice systems, pursue of this code is not warranted.
